Description
This fashion editorial portrait features a young male model captured by photographer Ben Parks for The Blend Magazine project By The Book. The subject is seated against a neutral grey studio background, wearing a distinctive color-blocked top in royal blue, red, and black, complemented by a dramatic high white collar featuring a large fabric bow. The styling by Sam Ranger brings a refined yet bold character to the composition, enhanced by grooming and makeup details executed by Hiroki Kojima and Marina Belfon Rose. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the sharp features of the model and the smooth texture of the garments against the minimalist background.
